I need help transposing clarinet scales?
My music teacher gave the whole band class a list of scales that we need to practice and i need to transpose them but i’m not sure how, especially the last ones:
B major–> ?
G#/Ab minor–> ?
F#/Gb major–>?
D#/Eb minor–> ?
C#/Db major–> ?
A#/Bb minor–> ?
G#/Ab major–> ?
F minor–> ?
D#/Eb major–> ?
C minor–> ?
and another thing,
Bb major and G minor both have the same flats and sharps and everything (in Bb major and G minor i guess they both don’t have any, but..), right?
So are all majors and minors paired up, kind of, and when they’re paired up do they have the same key signatures?
:[
eh. i’m really confused.
Favorite Answer
G#/Ab minor–> Bb Minor or Db Major = 5 flats
F#/Gb major–> Ab Major or F minor = 4 flats
D#/Eb minor–> F minor or Ab Major = 4 flat
C#/Db major–> Eb Major or C minor = 3 flats
A#/Bb minor–> C minor or Eb Major = 3 flats
G#/Ab major–> Bb Major or G minor = 2 flats
F minor–> G minor or Bb major = 2 flats
D#/Eb major–> F Major or D minor = 1 flat
C minor–> D minor or F major = 1 flat
Don’t forget that your order of flats are Bb Eb Ab Db Gb Cb Fb and your order of sharps are F# C# G# D# A# E# B#
You are right, a Major and coresponding minor scale have the same Key Signature. A minor scale is just a major scale started from the sixth note.
A C Major scale is CDEFGABC The sixth is A so an A minor scale is the same a a C Major but it starts on A and ends on A making it ABCDEFGA.
I hope this helps.
